~~~ ILM 1970s SOUL/FUNK/DISCO ALBUMS POLL ~~~ VOTING THREAD

70s Soul & Funk not that popular on ILX shock

not enough synths?

70s Soul and Funk TRACKS a very big thing with me. It was the prospect of coming up with 25 albums that threw me off.

Not a diss on this poll, mind you--I'm looking forward to the results, mainly for the purposes of my education.

― Cosmic Slop,

The Motown and disco polls got got turn outs. Also, There's a Riot Goin' On did win the 70s poll back in the day. Curtis came close in the alternative 70s poll a few years ago too.

I think maybe the time to vote could have been a bit longer? A week isn't really a long time.

tracks poll?

ime of running polls most people leave voting til the last minute so chances are a 2 or 3 week voting period would mean the 13 ballots so far wouldnt come in until the last few days.
People always put voting off until as late as possible.

the recent metal poll had 2 months voting period and 80% of votes came in the last 5 days

Plus, since we started with a nominations list that was more or less complete, you could say you had five weeks to put a ballot together and vote. I'll divide things differently next time, I think.

Anyway, one more ballot was sent in during the last hour (by a user whose name I don't recognize, so hi!). Less than 12 hours to go...

I will vote, but being busy has meant I'll only vote for albums I've heard before - and only for albums I've enjoyed as full albums, which isn't the way I know some artists best.

My internet is down on the computer w/ my ballot. I'll see what I can do.

phew voted. I think I only sent a 60 albums ballot but it was making my head hurt looking at all those great albums and I couldn't make my mind.

ok that should have worked!

I would definitely vote if we had another week or so, didn't get a chance to listen to much new stuff.

But if not I'll just send in a 10 album ballot or something

Voted!

Voted!

Ok, I quit dicking around and sent in a ballot. I couldn't decide between one and two (both by the same artist), so I consider it a virtual tie--gave the points to the one I think might not place as high

Shit, really? I must have messed up my time zones - so voting is still open :)

well it's midnight now PST, but for those Hawaiian ilxors they should have 2 more hours

3 even, according to the World Clock. So just to be on the safe side:
